Third Party Prohibitionists, imagining
that the mighty rumbling they hear is
somehow a result of their frantic kick
ing, are getting themselves in trim to do
the champion high-kick act of the sea-
son. They surmise that the temperance
agitation resulting from the Dow law is
the fruitage of their ardent horn-blowing,
and 20 they are tuning up that mellow
baxoo. Republicans who have fallen
over the third party stumbling-block
may return and stand erect in the old
ranks. The laurels which third party
ranters are trying to steal belong to Re-
publicans, and our reward is in waiting
at the coming election. Probabilities
indicate that the third party vote will
be lighter this fall than ever before. The
sole purpose for which that party was
orsanised is steadily fitting away, and
win leave nothing but its noisy devotees
screaming over the vacancy.

A gentleman from Dodson township
in the Prohibition convention last We'd
nesday while heaping abuse upon the
Dow law, unintentionally furnished
some evidence concerning the salutary
effect of the workings of that law. He
narrated Lynchburg's experience with

the products of Freiberg & Workum's
and the adjacent section Of Dodson
township the most approved carmine
hue they boarded the train and returned
to this place. Then Lynchburg's
ealoonists held a quiet consultation and
decided not to sell the fiery liquid to
visiting colored gentlemen lest the good
citizens there should band together and de-
stroy their business. And yet they tell US
that Dow law is 3-ply abemination!

1t is impossible to maintain the labor
societies as secret orders when labor
party is organized. In the nature of
things the methods of the party will be
adopted by the societies, thus destroying
their secret sessions and merging them
into the party. A political party and a
secret order are widely at variance in
their ways of handling public questions,
and one must take the precedence to the
ultimate destruction of the other.
